Tales Of Love

“How can you be so annoying, how can you let them go so easily? mtchew” Tola hissed. She was furious with her husband.

“What was I Supposed to do?” Caden Diego asked in a nonchalant way. He had guessed his wife was not happy with the way he let it end. She tucked at him while they were still in the Axel’s manor but he pretended as if he didn’t understand.

“Why didn’t you allow Eve to make a decision about the compensation? She was the one directly involved” Tola snapped at him. She was very unsatisfied with her husband’s way of handling something so serious. She can vouch for her daughter that she would have asked for millions of dollars or possibly a percentage of the company’s shares.

Caden Diego simply walked away from them. It’s not wise for a man to stand and exchange words with a woman who is ready for contention. He went into his study and shut the door. He needed to relax his head and think over all that had happened that day.

The party was brief but everyone had a nice time. Grey was pleased with the warm welcome. Santiago only came briefly and left.

Mira’s eyes kept drifting to Grey over and over again. She was feeling ecstatic seeing him. She was having this feeling she had never had towards the opposite gender.

After everyone had dined, the party came to an end. Some looked drunk but Grey had a great level of tolerance for alcohol. He was sober enough to drive himself home. He had given almost all of them a toast.

As he wanted to enter his car, someone called him from behind. He paused and looked back, and saw Mira.

She came to him and gave a shy smile. She asked if he’s fine or she wouldn’t mind dropping him off first before going home.

Grey’s lips were in a straight line. Was his instincts right when he felt this lady was looking at him with adoring eyes at the party a while ago?.

“Thanks Miss Axel. I can still drive myself home. I appreciate your concern” Grey replied with a faint smile.

Mira nodded and waved him a goodbye before walking off. Grey was stunned at her concern for him and watched her retreating back view until she vanished out of sight.

He got into his car and drove off. He had a lot to discuss with his mother. She must be eagerly waiting to hear how his first day at work went.

Mira got home but didn’t stop thinking about Grey’s handsome face. Her mother and grandfather were talking when she arrived. But all she heard her mother said was “… then I will go with him to America and bring Mira along”

Is her mother going to America and intends to bring her along? She greeted them but knew they were not in a good mood.

She went into her room and soon the servant came to call her over for dinner. She asked the servant what had happened that day at the manor?

The servant said in a voice best to be described as a whisper about how the young master came home and her grandfather’s threats.

When she heard that the Diego’s were at the manor, she felt like she would have smashed their heads if she were at home.

Now she understands. She knew about her brother’s meeting with the reporters, and she read the news on the internet.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

But didn’t believe the Diego’s were going to throw the last bit of self esteem they had to the dogs and bring their miserable selves here. How shameless they could be.

She was not going to let her brother be replaced by her uncle or his son. She went downstairs to have a talk with her mum and grandfather.

But when she got to them, her mother was smiling and thanking her grandfather. She knew the issue had been resolved. She was going to pretend not to know a thing except she was told by her mother.

Santiago was almost through with the sorting of documents in his study when his mother called. He was contemplating whether to answer or not.

The phone rang two more times before reluctantly answering the phone.

“Santiago dear, your grandfather had settled the issues of you and that girl. So you can continue with your work as the President of the Axel group.

But one more thing, you need to come over for dinner tomorrow and talk things over with your grandfather” Palmer summarized the outcome of her discussion with her father in law.

Santiago doesn’t need to know how much effort she put into pulling the strings with his grandfather to make him change his mind about removing him from that position. “Mum, I need some time off work,” Santiago said.

“Are you really going to waste my efforts? Don’t be an ingrate Santiago” His mother said and hung up.

Santiago sighed and placed his head on the back rest with his eyes closed. His mother can be very difficult sometimes, when she doesn’t want to understand, there’s no way you can make her do it.

Aurora was counting months. In a couple of months she will return back to her country and see her babies again.

She was always having a video call with them. But still she misses them so much. Sam was always calm and composed but Samantha, she doesn’t know how to express her curiosity.

Sam reminds her of Santiago’s cold nature especially when he’s in the midst of people he was not familiar with. He is like his father both facially and in charisma. But Samantha took after her aunt in appearance.

How she wished her daughter took after her in appearance. But no, they both took after the members of their Axel family. Isn’t Santiago’s gene too dominating?

Did Santiago know she had twins? Her mother (Millie Logan) told her that she already told Santiago about her pregnancy.

She will keep her babies from him. When they eventually come face to face with each other, she won’t deny having his babies but she will forbid him from seeing them.

A man cannot endure the torture of seeing his children been kept away from him . Especially when the children don’t acknowledge him as their father.

“Santiago, you wait and I will make you pay for what you did to me” Aurora muttered to herself. But she still loves him very much.

She had never stopped thinking about him. Perhaps the love in her heart for him is what makes her feel hurt the more whenever she thinks about him.
